Question
herb
I've read a lot of comments this winter about the LX3 and the tc upgrade and problems some were having.
In december I ordered an LX3 with factory tc upgrade before reading on this site about the ducer problems and how well Marcum was taking care of this.
I had misgivings about this purchase even before it was delivered, and made a post about why the company would even ship units knowing there was the possibility of them having "issues".
To top it off I hadn't been able to use the machine all winter, no ice.
Till yesterday.
Finally got out on some ice, drilled a hole and set in my new Marcum LX3 with the tc upgrade. This unit ran absolutely great-for about 15 minutes!!!!
Then the screen turned yellow. I shut it off and turned it back on and it ran like it was supposed to for about 10 seconds, then back to nothing but yellow.
It's a good thing I brought along my old Vex as a back up or the day would have been shot to crap.
I'm going to try to stay away from bashing Marcum. I still like this machine, but it has a flaw.
Does anyone have a clue as to what is wrong? Is the ducer? I unplugged it last night and noticed it has 3 prongs. There was mention on another thread about 3 prong vs 2 prong ducer plugs.
Will I need to send the whole unit back to Marcum, or just the ducer?
Thanks for any help and suggestions.
